I heard the Army just decided to make EMT-P a requirement for their flight medics.

Just word of mouth though.

Some military bases have fire departments that respond to EMS calls on the base but most contract that out now too.

Well I know there's a certain amount of class room hours and hands on that a civilian needs to get EMT-P (I don't know what the national average is off hand)

Wouldn't that be overkill besides a waste of resources and man hours? I could understand a basic or even intermediate but the paramedic is a bit much. But I have been wrong before lol
